MS Outlook not able to start up - Host Process (Rundll) Crashes

I was hoping someone could help me with a problem I've been having since yesterday afternoon. Yesterday morning I checked my email with MS Outlook without any problems. I shut down my laptop (Vista did not apply any updates when shutting down), hit the road, powered it back on, and tried to check my email again. I got the message:

"Microsoft Office Outlook has stopped working.
Windows is collecting more information about the problem. This might take several minutes."

I've been trying to get it working since yesterday. I haven't found anything useful on the net to help resolve this issue. I've gone as far as uninstalling the whole MS Office suite and reinstalling.

I have also noticed that if I go into Control Panel -> Mail -> Data Files (or Email Accounts) that it will report an error:

"Windows host process (Rundll32) has stopped working"

I went into the Event Viewer -> Application to see if I can find out more details and this is what it gives:

I had another Vista computer that I tried bringing over the c:\windows\system32\RPCRT4.DLL file from (1.2 mb with the new file versus ~720k with the old) (I had to boot up via F8 and go into a command prompt). I gave that a shot and rebooted. Vista failed to start, rebooted, and then gave the black screen saying the previous startup attempt failed. It prompted me to try and repair the computer. I did. I believe having it go through these tests and attempt to fix it resolved the problem.

I imagine if I would have just tried booting up via F8 and "Repair Computer" and then scan & repair computer it would have resolved it. Maybe it needed to relink some DLL's or whatnot.
